Syringes seized by customs

Hello all,

Apologies if this is the wrong place for this thread, so mods please feel free to delete if necessary.

I'm originally from Ireland and moved to Sarajevo in Bosnia 4 months ago. When I was back home I would regularly have ordered a couple of boxes of syringes (insulin and 3ml 23g needle types) online and had no issues with them being delivered. If I was badly stuck I could also get syringes from pharmacies, no questions asked.

Since arriving here in Sarajevo (I'm based in central Sarajevo) I have found it impossible to source syringes in pharmacies. A while back I ordered some cheap insulin syringes from China and there was no issue, 300 were delivered to me via BH Post. I then placed an order for the larger 3ml with a 23g needle, everything was fine until it reached Bosnia and I received a letter from customs stating that the items were seized by customs and that I would need to produce documentation to "import medical devices".

Is there anyone living in Sarajevo or even throughout Bosnia that could shed some light on a source to obtain syringes and needles? Any of my peptides and GH I have ordered all came through customs no problem but these were delivered via FEDEX.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
 
Hi there, are you still based in Sarajevo? I was looking at ordering some peptides and HGH but was unsure how does it work with the local customs. A fellow expat here, arrived a year ago or so. An by the way - syringes and needles are available locally in Sarajevo - there is no need to order from abroad.
 
Hi, yes I am still in Sarajevo and will be for the foreseeable future. I had no issues getting HGH and peptides in from China.

I tried to get needles and syringes from a couple of dozen pharmacies and all said they do not stock them? Is there a specialised dispensary here for them?
